If you did not lose consciousness at all, you did not get a second concussion and should be okay. For healthy diet: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/., exercise 30 minutes/day, drink enough water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. Get HPV, Flu and Covid vaccines. Wish you good health!

Effects of a concussion are transient and do not last 3 months. Therefore, this needs further evaluation. Your jaw issues are inconsistent with a concussion, and would not be expected to add to your symptomatic burden.
